Instructions

Prepare the Chocolate Base:
- Melt butter in a small pan over low heat. Add the softened cream cheese and vanilla extract. Turn off the heat and mash the cream cheese into the butter until smooth.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine cocoa powder and Swerve Confectioners. Mix well.
- Pour the cream cheese and butter mixture into the cocoa powder mixture. Blend using a hand mixer on low speed until smooth and fluffy.
- Spread the mixture evenly into a pan (8x6x2 inches works well). Freeze for 30 minutes before adding the topping.
Make the Chocolate Topping:
- In a small bowl, combine melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, salt, cocoa powder, and Swerve Confectioners. Stir until smooth.
- Use the topping immediately as it can firm up if left out for too long.
Assemble the Dessert:
- Remove the base from the freezer. Smooth the top if necessary.
- Pour the chocolate topping over the base and spread evenly. If some of the base melts slightly, it will create a beautiful swirl effect.
- Cut the dessert into 30 small squares and enjoy!

Notes

Variations: Add peppermint extract, swirl in peanut butter, top with crushed nuts, or drizzle with sugar-free caramel for extra flavor.
If using a different sweetener, ensure it’s powdered for the best texture.
You can replace cream cheese with coconut cream for a dairy-free version.
